I have tried unsuccessfully to get it to do so. Cumulus will not speak to the TP2700WC directly according to Steve.
EasyWeather mdb file has 20 fields in the Records table and 17 in the Params table. The WeatherSmart Records table has 26 fields and it has 9 fields in the Params table. My old TP1080WC will not speak to WeatherSmart and my new TP2700WC will not speak with EasyWeather. WeatherSmart is NOT EasyWeather although the interfaces and "about" look nearly the same and they are apparently the same publisher. It sure looks like the one I'm replacing and the one I bought. Are they telling the truth? Ambient WS-2095.
This one says it can use Cumulus, but I don't see it on the list. At least it gives me something to do while I think on what to do with the station. So I might figure out more if I stare at it. I did find this post,, which gives me some thinking material but it doesn't give the format required. Anyone have a real easyweather.dat file, real data or dummy, that I can look at to see how Cumulus expects to see the data? Possible, very doable, BUT - I don't know the format of an easyweather.dat file in order to create the correct fields from the. Why not convert, on the fly, the contents of the database into easyweather.dat for cumulus to read. Having worked with Access databases many years and designed some pretty radical ways to observe, share, and edit data a little light has turned on. Snooping around I see that WeatherSmart uses an Access database to store what it is downloading. OK, I'm still mad about the ProWeatherStation TP2700WC not being compatible (and wrote them a rather sharp comment about it) Since I tend to scheme when I'm unhappy I have been exploring how the TP2700WC and WeatherSmart works (WeatherSmart seems to be a proprietary version of EasyWeather) It can export to CSV which is well and good, but it means that someone would need to make it into an easyweather.dat.
